Hire is a recruiting app by Google that uses AI to make the hiring process faster and simpler. With Gmail, Google Calendar and other G Suite integrations, Hire streamlines administrative tasks so that your team can hire the best people, faster.

Search past candidates and rediscover great prospects for new job openings

Access reports for easy analysis throughout the recruiting process

More than an applicant tracking system

Customize your hiring process

Create custom hiring stages that match the needs of open positions and the unique way your organization hires—from coding tests for engineering jobs to onsite presentations for sales jobs. You can build the unique process requirements for each role.

Plus, you can customize your interview feedback scale with a rating system that’s familiar to your team. For example: ranking from -2 to +2 or A to F.

Optimize your careers site for Google Search and post to job boards

Millions of job seekers start their search on Google every day. With Hire, you get a career site that’s optimized for Google Search, so more candidates can see your jobs where they’re already searching.

You can also post your jobs to major job boards—like Indeed or Glassdoor—along with specialized ones as well. Hire tracks the efficacy of each source, so you can make the most of your marketing spend.

Stay aligned with all candidate info in one place

Collaborate with the hiring team to build out robust candidate profiles with details throughout the interview process. Engage your team about a candidate by @mentioning specific team members in comments.

Quick, simple, and smart interview scheduling

Hire uses Google AI to recommend interviewers and speed up your scheduling process. See all interviewers’ schedules side by side, drag and drop interviews into available slots, adjust duration, and book a recommended room all from the app.

Interviews are synced to Google Calendar, with calendar invites sent to each interviewer and RSVPs visible at a glance.

Submit feedback from any device without logging into the Hire app. Whether you’re taking notes or entering feedback, you can see the candidate’s resume and job description while you work. Interviewers gain access to feedback from teammates only after they submit their own, which reduces groupthink and bias.

Get alerts about important activities

Just as Gmail makes it easy to find the most important emails, Hire helps you quickly focus on important candidate activity, whether it’s newly entered feedback, incoming candidate emails, or upcoming interviews.

Hire provides predefined reports about candidate pipeline, source efficiency, disposition reasons, and time to hire. With one click, you can export the data to Google Sheets.

Migrate data from other applicant tracking systems

Need to transition data from a legacy system? We’ve got you covered. The Customer Success team will work with you to migrate your data from a prior ATS so all of your recruiting data is in one place. This service is free for most organizations.

You can require approval before users publish jobs or extend offers. This
gives you more control and helps with auditing for compliance and
budget-related decisions.

Create and manage candidate relationships that last

Rediscover excellent candidates

With candidate discovery, you can make good on your promise to get back to previous candidates or evaluate forgotten candidates for newly opened roles.

Hire resurfaces past candidates when you open new positions, making it easy to rediscover and reconsider strong candidates from the past. Instead of making recruiting a one-off transaction, Hire enables you to cultivate relationships over time.

Understand the history of the candidate relationship with automatic records

With Gmail sync, candidate emails are automatically tracked in Hire, keeping recruiters, hiring managers, and coordinators aligned. New team members, eager to get up to speed, can easily see historical communications with a candidate and understand the development of the candidate relationship.

Not only that, with reminders, your team can keep on top of follow-up tasks.

Whether you’re reaching out to a candidate for the first time, scheduling an interview, or sending a polite rejection, we’ve got you covered. Custom email templates streamline communication with individuals and groups of candidates.

Track top tier candidates

Keep complete record of applicants and candidates. Use Collections to keep track of those silver medal candidates. They’ll be easy to find when the right opportunity arises.

Source candidates from your database and employee referrals

Make your candidate database work for you

Search your candidate database to rediscover high potential candidates. Resurface those that received high interview scores but weren’t hired, or received an offer but declined. These candidates—and others in your database—can be a great match for new positions.

Hire’s search understands what you mean when you say “front end engineer.” It knows you want a professional with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript skills. No need to use Boolean with a dozen “OR” options.

Best-fit candidates appear at the top of search results based on experience with the most important skills for each role.

Employee referrals

Your employees can submit referrals and track their status. Hiring teams
can get alerts, review referred candidates and their backgrounds.

Seamless connection with G Suite for Recruiting

Automatic Gmail sync

Gmail sync identifies when you are communicating with a candidate, and automatically brings all your recruiting-related emails into Hire. The entire hiring team can see communications with the candidate. Not only that, when you select the candidate’s email address in Hire, you’ll trigger your regular Gmail compose window.

Gmail add-on to recruit from your inbox

Never have to leave your inbox. Hire’s Gmail Add-On brings the candidate profile to you. When you get an email from a candidate, the Hire side panel will give you complete context on the candidate to reduce context switching between apps. And what’s even better: you can take actions like advancing or rejecting the candidate, or messaging your teammates right from your inbox.
